This class is for middle school age students with at least three years of dance who are looking to step up their training! During the jazz portion of our class, students will learn classic jazz technique as well as musical theater and hip-hop-inspired dance forms. Jazz classes consist of warm-up, center work, and traveling progressions, which are all designed to increase flexibility, strength, and technique. We will also work on improving overall performance and expression. During tap, we will work on simple and more complex rhythms through technique aimed at achieving good, clear tap sounds. There is an emphasis on terminology, counting and finding individual expression.
